In order to minimize moiré patterns in autostereoscopic parallax displays, the optical component, which is used for forming viewing zones, is analyzed with varying period and slant angle. First, horizontal-parallax autostereoscopic displays (HPAD) can be approximated as the superposition of three corresponding binary gratings. Referring to the unification of indicial equation method and Fourier analysis, a singular state and two stable moiré-free states are obtained according to the superposition of the equivalent grating of LCD and special radial grating. Two stable moiré-free states are valid for HPAD. For full-parallax autostereoscopic displays (FPAD), a special radial grid grating is introduced to simulate a 2D optical component with progressively varying period and slant angle. Similarly, two corresponding stable moiré-free states for FPAD can be used for eliminating moiré patterns.
